Dan Ticktum, Driver, CUPRA KIRO “Overall, I think Mexico City is one of the best events of the year from a fan and atmosphere perspective. I always enjoy interacting with and seeing the fans there. There’s great energy all around to be honest, and on the in lap, it’s one of the few places where you can hear the crowd in the stadium which is pretty cool and quite unique. With the track itself, Qualifying is very important – more important than São Paulo – so we need to make sure that we get the car in the window. Overall, I just want to get cracking. I’m very, very excited for the season and I’m looking forward to Mexico.” David Beckmann, Driver, CUPRA KIRO “I’m really looking forward to Mexico City. The track is very different to what we raced in São Paulo, and obviously, that means we’ll have a different strategy in the race, but I think we have a very strong package to fight with. In general, São Paulo was quite difficult for me, but I had some very positive moments as well, and without the contact, I think we could have been looking at a double points finish. I did the fastest lap at the end of the race, and I think that shows our potential and speed. I feel happy in the team, everyone is working very well together, and operationally, our first weekend was very smooth with the GEN3 Evo. In Brazil we may not have gotten the points we wanted, but we’ve still got a lot to give. I’m confident we can regain those lost points in Mexico, and I’m excited to get the weekend started.”
